Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
- A.
Chondroblastoma
- B.
Ewing‘s sarcoma
- C.
Neuroblastoma
- D.
Osteosarcoma
Correct Answer

- A.
Aneurysmal bone cyst
- B.

- C.
Osteosarcoma
- D.
Hyperparathyroidism

All are true regarding brachial plexus injury, except:
- A.
Preganglionic lesions have a better prognosis than postganglionic lesions
- B.
Erb’s palsy causes paralysis of the abductors and external rotators of the shoulder
- C.
In Klumpke‘s palsy, Horner’s syndrome may be present on the ipsilateral side
- D.
Histamine test is useful to differentiate between the preganglionic and postganglionic lesions
Correct Answer
A. Preganglionic lesions have a better prognosis than postganglionic lesionsExplanation
Preganglionic lesions have a poor prognosis. They do not recover and cannot be corrected surgically.Rate this question:

All of the following statements are true about development dysplasia (DDH) of the hip, except:
- A.
It is more common in females
- B.
Oligohydramnios is associated with a higher risk of DDH
- C.
The hourglass appearance of the capsule may prevent a successful closed reduction
- D.
Twin pregnancy is a known risk factor
Correct Answer
D. Twin pregnancy is a known risk factorExplanation
DDH of the hip is a condition where the hip joint fails to develop properly. It is more common in females, as stated in the first option. Oligohydramnios, which is a condition characterized by low levels of amniotic fluid, is associated with a higher risk of DDH, as stated in the second option. The hourglass appearance of the capsule may prevent a successful closed reduction, meaning that it can hinder the process of manually reducing the hip joint, as stated in the third option. However, twin pregnancy is not a known risk factor for DDH, making it the exception among the given statements.Rate this question:

Manipulation by mother
- B.
Manipulation and Dennis Brown splint
- C.
Manipulation and casts
- D.
Surgical release
Correct Answer

“Rugger Jersey Spine” is seen in:
- A.
Fluorosis
- B.
Achondroplasia
- C.
Renal osteodystrophy
- D.
Marfan’s syndrome
Correct Answer
C. Renal osteodystrophyExplanation
Renal osteodystrophy is a condition that affects the bones due to chronic kidney disease. It is characterized by abnormalities in bone mineralization and structure. "Rugger Jersey Spine" refers to a radiographic finding where the vertebral bodies appear dense and have a characteristic striped or banded appearance, resembling the stripes on a rugby jersey. This finding is commonly seen in renal osteodystrophy due to the abnormal deposition of calcium and phosphate in the bones.Rate this question:

Brown tumors are seen in:
- A.
Hyperparathyroidism
- B.
Pigmented villonodular synovitis
- C.
Osteomalacia
- D.
Neurofibromatosis
Correct Answer
A. HyperparathyroidismExplanation
Brown tumors, also known as osteoclastomas, are a rare manifestation of hyperparathyroidism. They occur due to excessive parathyroid hormone (PTH) production, which leads to increased bone resorption. The excessive bone resorption causes the formation of cyst-like lesions filled with fibrous tissue, blood, and hemosiderin, giving them a brown appearance. These tumors can occur in any bone but are most commonly seen in the spine, pelvis, and long bones. Other conditions listed, such as pigmented villonodular synovitis, osteomalacia, and neurofibromatosis, are not typically associated with the development of brown tumors.Rate this question:
